معرفی
Dr. Pauline Hall Barrientos is an Honorary Lecturer at the University of Glasgow's School of Medicine, Dentistry & Nursing and an Affiliate of the School of Cardiovascular & Metabolic Health. Her research focuses on cardiovascular and renal imaging, post-COVID-19 multisystem disorders, and computational fluid dynamics modeling of vascular diseases. She has contributed to studies on hemodialysis vascular access optimization, post-COVID-19 illness trajectories, and the hemodynamic effects of arteriovenous fistulas.
Education & Affiliations:
- University of Glasgow (current affiliation)
Research Interests:
Dr. Barrientos' work bridges clinical imaging with biomedical engineering, particularly in:
- 4D Flow MRI applications for vascular assessment
- Cardio-renal syndrome mechanisms
- Computational modeling of arterial stenosis
- Long-term post-infectious cardiovascular sequelae
Publication Trends:
Her recent work emphasizes:
- Post-COVID-19 multisystem dysfunction analysis
- Vascular access optimization for hemodialysis patients
- Cardiac adaptation to arteriovenous fistulas
- Comparative imaging studies (MRI vs ultrasound)
Collaborations:
Works with interdisciplinary teams including nephrologists, cardiologists, and biomedical engineers. Key collaborations involve the Renal Unit at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital and the Glasgow Cardiovascular Research Centre.
